Super Cause, Super Shopping . . . Super Saturday

Do something special this summer in the Hamptons—go to Super Saturday, August 1st, and support an important cause.

Two things we love: a good cause and a good deal. At Super Saturday at Nova’s Ark Project in Water Mill, N.Y., you get both. On August 1st, over 150 designers and brands like Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren and Alice + Olivia will set up shop to benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.

The fund was started 15 years ago by Faith Kates Kogan and the late Liz Tilberis, who was then editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar and battling ovarian cancer. Joined by Donna Karan, the three founded Super Saturday. From $300,000 in 1998, Super Saturday raised $3 million last year.

So much to do, so little time: We love the designer garage sale, and the kids love the carnival. There are also activities aplenty and great food. The event is 1:00–6:00 p.m., and tickets are $450. But a $650 preview ticket gets you a 12:00 entry and a goody bag. Children 5–16 are $150; children under 5 are free.

Donna Karan, Kelly Ripa, Blake Lively and Ariel Foxman of InStyle are hosting the event. For tickets, call London Misher Public Relations, 212.759.2800, ext. 22, or go to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund website, www.ocrf.org. We’ll see you there!
